[igt-dev] [PATCH i-g-t] lib/intel_bufops: Fix regression on 5.4 kernel

[Vidya Srinivas]

Starting commit 8759c4a3020ce4 "Add intel_buf_init_in_region"
__intel_buf_init uses gem_create_in_memory_regions instead of
gem_create. Older kernels like 5.4 still dont have support for
I915_GEM_CREATE_EXT_MEMORY_REGIONS (i915_gem_create_ext_ioctl)
from kernel commit (https://patchwork.freedesktop.org/patch/431581/?series=89648&rev=1)
Due to this, the flip-vs-fences tests are failing on kernel 5.4
Patch adds fall back to gem_create when __gem_create_in_memory_region_list fails.

v2 - Addressed review comments from Zbigniew and Mark
Added the fall back in __intel_buf_init
